Eighteen years ago, three men died in their farmland - they were placed in scarecrow poses, their arms raised, hanging from a wooden frame. There were no fatal injuries on the body, but they all seemed to be frightened to death by something. Before the case was solved, a saying began to spread in the village: On July 15th, the scarecrow will kill.
Eighteen years later, a fourth body appeared. The technique was exactly the same, and the location was less than 500 meters away from the scene.
The rookie police officer Gu Sigui ran into this case as soon as he reported for duty. Like all his colleagues, he was clueless.
But he has a secret - every night after he falls asleep, there will be a person in his dream who, as a teacher, teaches him to solve crimes.
The person didn't tell him the answer, he just let him see and think...
The more Gu Sigui investigated, the more he felt that this was not like a serial murder case, but more like a ritual that had been waited for for eighteen years.
